MONITORING AND SURVEILLANCE IN ACCIDENT SITUATIONS

Objective


An environmental radiological surveillance programme was undertaken in central Catalan around two nuclear sites. The study covered an operational period corresponding to the years 1988 and 1989.

A calculation model was developed to determine the contribution to the environmental dose of different radioactive components in the soil and this has been validated with field data from along the Catalan coastline. In addition, two techniques for calibrating environmental measuring equipment were tested, one in the laboratory and the other under field conditions.

We have also accomplished the initial stage in developing a high sensitivity-low pressure ionisation chamber. Our aim at a later stage is to contrast this with other commercially available equipment. To do this, the first stage consisted of developing a high sensivity, low noise electrometer which has supplied good results under extreme temperature conditions.
